Key & Peele School Bully. A great video about defense mechanisms and what's happening deep inside.

A pretty good video in which we find the antagonist is just projecting his own insecurity

A video in which a few words cause a guy's unconscious mind to make associations he accidentally spills out in a "Freudian Slip." You can find lots more of these type clips on YouTube; it's a common phenomenon.

A great Classical Conditioning Video of Jim Conditioning Dwight to desire Altoids when he hears the computer start-up sound. You can still find it here:

Video about the famous Little Albert Studies by John Watson. Classical Conditioning.

Great video of NBA players who are so conditioned (classically) to get high fives after free throws they do it even when no one is there....because most of the time someone is. How are you conditioned to automatically do or feel certain things?

A 7min TED video about the difference between Classical and Operant Conditioning

Albert Bandura's classic "Bobo" doll experiment on observational learning and modeling. You can skip the first few minutes, but listen to what he says while watching the beatings.

A very silly video from a very silly show that demonstrates positive reinforcement and Operant Conditioning's penetration into in popular culture

A good video of "The Dog Whisperer" Ceaser Milian showing how the owner's behavior had only encouraged the dog to misbehave. Watch more of his videos to learn more about Operant Conditioning in dogs (and people).

Good video with Leon Festinger talking about his classic experiment in Cognitive Dissonance while showing the study

Video about When Prophecy Fails and Cognitive Dissonance . A story about a cult that predicted the end of the world and when it didn't happen, they decided the world didn't end because...(watch video)

A video showing the power of mental schemas and how they define our reality. People didn't expect or appreciate a world-class musician playing in a metro station.

A good video showing how the human mind constructs reality to some extent through the power of thought/cognition

Here's one about painting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BlLX03OJRU

Video of Donald Trump from 1994 admitting to having an affair and enjoying it,

yet white Evangelicals were his biggest supporters: Cognitive Dissonance?...pretty much for sure.

Link to article about how on 30% of white Evangelicals said a politican could be good and have done immoral acts in 2011, but up to 72% saying same things only 5yrs later with Trump

Are these voters another example of trying to avoid Cognitive Dissonance? Funny video.

A great and funny video showing what many think is an insight into the beginnings of human morality.

The full, longer, video of the two monkeys. Very good and interesting

Another great video of monkey's working together and trusting each other and ultimately sharing. Human morality is just not that unique it seems.

A great video on where does morality come from. Are we born with the beginnings of morality or do we have to be taught all of it?
